Dont give me the "he needs 100% focus to defend". I meet semi-drunk tos in my diamond league who still knows that blocking units from coming in is n1 prio.

It doesn't matter whether or not he intentionally threw the game or didn't play at his best because he was already through even if he lost, what matters is that because of the format he could.

It's a bad format that is unfair to the players who don't get to face an opponent who may or may not give it their best because they're already through, and it's a bad format because it gives incentive for matchmaking (that doesn't have to planned) when a player who is already through faces a friend or teammate.
Education should be our seniors guiding us to be "who" we want to be, not "what" we want to be.

I got a sick idea. Make all players play all their group stage games simultaneously. All GOM needs is more casters. I'd be really interested to see Inca DT rush in 4 matches at the same time.

Seriously though, when Naniwa threw his game he didn't care about the outcome at all, and you can't give it 100% if you don't care, but Inca did care, he WANTED to lose, you can't give it anywhere near 100% when you want to lose...

This is what makes GSL so silly,
A game MUST have meaning for both sides.
Players that lose early meaningful matches can win because they win later meaningless matches.

Yeah, this. Unfortunately, Inca is just terrible. And Code S!

Yeah true not much you can do about the format right?. Is GOM changing this format in 2012 for Up/downs?

Inca really sucks, even if he was trying his best, he would probably have lost.
I thought he got better in macro games but still not good enough as he showed us in his game vs Virus, he probably get picked by some strong opponents next season who wants a free win.

Source? I find it hard to believe that either of the guys would be dumb enough to screenshot their conversation and post it somewhere.

But what drama would we have for today and tomorrow? Which player should be the TL/reddit public ennemy?

How can people accuse players to throw games without any proof?-_-

So I suppose this means Losira also threw his game by not getting his evo chamber in time VS a guy infamous for his DT use. And inca MUST have thrown the virus game when he walked out with 5 colossus and no anti air!

Don't you guys remember that Inca has the most terrible PvZ ever? It's impossible to make that call.

It's just a shitty system that Polt/Losira got fucked by.
